"Dr Frantzides and his staff are excellent. I initially sought out his help in Dec 06 unsure and confused. I had seen several commercials on the lap band and thought maybe this is something for me. So my PCP referred me to Dr. Frantzides and I set up my initial consultation. I got to the office and Geri took me in gave me some info and then told me that she had gastric bypass by Dr. F and showed me some pictures of herself. I almost fell off my chair. She looked great. I cried but felt relief. Someone else would actually know what I will expect and have lived thru it. I instantly felt comfortable and knew I would have a great experience. Dr F came in and was very helpful. I initially went in to get info on the lap band- I was set against gastric bypass- my mom had it a few years ago by a different surgeon and had many complications. He told me he would do, the complication rates and his professional opinion of what he thought was best for me. I walked out of there confused on which surgery to do, but I had a date- Feb 14, 2007. I discussed my options with my family and decided on the Gastric bypass. rnDr F’s office did everything for me. They took care of all the insurance stuff; I drove them crazy with all my e-mails with questions and things I would think of. They are a great group of people who genuinely care for you and your well being. If I have any questions or issues the staff is great and answers my questions and treats me great even though I can be bothersome. rnDr. F & Dr. Jones-thanks for giving me my life back! Also thanks Dr. F for having Leslie, Geri and Cynthia there for any and all support I will ever need. You and your staff are truly a blessing in disguise for me.rn"
